So I've come to realize that people, in general, suck. They are phony, fake, disingenuous, I think you get my drift. I hate it. I am honest, perhaps to a fault. I tell people what I really think. I try my best to be tactful about it and to not hurt feelings but remain true and real. It's an easier way of life. I don't understand why people choose to behave differently. Because, believe me, it's a conscious choice. No one forces you to be fake, you do it all on your own.

Now there are exceptions to the "people suck" statement. A few rare gems out there who are then considered friends, or at least acquaintances you don't mind commiserating with. I cherish these folks. I find them worth my time and that means a lot to me. I have been through a lot in my life and have wasted too much time on people and things that don't matter. That time is over. I now only want to spend my energy on people and things that truly matter, like my family and close friends. This means cutting some people out and I am OK with that.

NO ONE is worth chasing after. If they don't treat you how you treat them, cut them out.If they don't fulfil you in some way, cut them out.If you feel you give more to the relationship then you receive, cut them out.If you feel worse after having interactions with them than before you did, cut them out.

Well it's been quite some time since I've written anything, I think it's time to start again. Life has been challenging as of late. Sometimes I feel like I just don't know what I am doing or what I want. I love being a Mom but kids are hard. I like having a new job with more "prestige" but my work environment sucks. I am just feeling a little lost.

On a brighter note, I started Weight Watchers. I feel good about actively doing something about my weight. It's super easy to be lazy though and just hope for the best. I am down right now but I know I could be doing better. I need to step up a solid gym routine and plan meals to make my life easier.

I wonder how others do it? As it is my 2 year old hasn't been going to bed till after 9 lately cause time just seems to get away. This is NOT good for him or me. I have always thought of myself as good at time management but not so sure anymore.

Well this post has been a bit of a complain platform but feels good to get it out. Hopefully I will keep this up and have more interesting things to say.

About Me

I'm Jess, just Jess. Not too complicated and pretty much what you see is what you get. I was born in Manhattan, NY (NYC baby!), spent my adolescence in Bloomfield, NJ and lived a few different places as an adult before landing in Tulsa, OK. I am a new mother and finding it very exciting.
